Cardenas Construction— construction of sidewalk access ramps at various locations. Background: On May 1, 2000, the City entered a contract with J. Cardenas Construction for construction of sidewalk access ramps at various locations per Plan No. 10020. After start of construction, a request was received from the City Attorney's Office to expedite the installation of new or modified ramps at seven additional locations to meet current ADA requirements. This request was a result of citizen complaints regarding lack of access. The locations of the additional new or modified ramps are described under Item 1 below. Contract Change Order No. One consists of the following items: Descii tion of Change Cost Item 1: Handicap Ramps, 1,055 SF @ $10.25/SF $10,813.75 Item 2: PCC Sidewalk, 48 SF @ 6.50/SF $312.00 Item 3: 6" Concrete Retaining Curb, 122 LF @ $10.25/LF $1,250.50 Item 4: Relocate Existing Roadside Sign, 2 EA @ $225.00/EA $450.00 Total Cost1F $12.826.25 Item 1: In accordance with terms of a settlement agreement between the City and the California State Attorney General, the City agreed to install or modify handicap ramps at several locations within time certain to bring the ramps into compliance with ADA requirements. The locations are as follows: intersection of Garner Avenue and Magnolia Avenue—Install four new curb ramps; Hospitality Lane at driveway to 268 W. Hospitality Lane—Modify two existing curb ramps; Northeast corner of Carnegie Drive and Hospitality Lane—Modify one existing curb ramp. The Contractor is requesting additional compensation due to substantial distance from his original work area and additional traffic control measures necessary due to heightened traffic levels along these routes. Item 2: Some sidewalk has to be removed and replaced to provide a smooth, handicap accessible path to the new or modified curb ramp. Item 3: Due to limited clearance a retaining curb has to be added at several locations in order to provide adequate width for a handicap accessible path of travel. - 2 - Item 4: Two roadside signs had to be relocated to clear the new improvements. Original Contract Amount $37,710.05 Amount of Change Order No. One $12,826.25 Amended Contract Price $50,536.30 Additional time to complete Contract due to Change Order.........20 Working Days Financial Impact: The amount of Change Order Number One exceeds the contingency amount initially approved as part of the contract on May 1, 2000. However, the additional handicap ramps in question would have been a part of a subsequent project funded from the same account in any event. They were included as a change order to this contract in an effort to meet the schedule agreed to with the Attorney General's office. The funds are available in Account No. 129-367-5504-7202 (Disabled access ramps— Citywide). Recommendation: That Contract Change Order No. One to the contract with J. Cardenas Construction be approved for construction of sidewalk access ramps at various locations, for a total Change Order amount of$12,826.25, increasing the contract total from $37,710.05 to $50,536.30. - 3 -
